Based on James Thurber‘s short story, Stiller who also directs, plays a day-dreamer, who after his job is threatened, escapes his anonymous life by disappearing into a world of fantasies filled with heroism, romance and action more extraordinary than he ever could have imagined.

Top-notch cast also includes Shirley MacLaine and Sean Penn, and a Christmas release is scheduled.
